Pa’lante
Pa'lante (Explicit)-Hurray for the Riff Raff
Oh I just want to go to work
And get back home
And be something
I just want to fall in line
Do my time
And be something
Well I just want to prove my worth
On the planet earth
And be something
I just want to fall in love
Not f**k it up
And feel something
Lately
Don't understand what I am
Treated as a fool
Not quite a woman or a man
Well I don't know
Guess I don't understand the plan
Colonise
And hyponotise
Be something
Steralised de humanised
Be something
Well take your pick
And stay out the way
Be something
Ah do your best
But f**k the rest
Be something
Ah lately
It's been mighty hard to see
Just searching for
My lost humanity
I look for you
My friend but do you look for me
Lately I'm not too afraid to die
I want to leave it all behind
I think about sometimes
Lately all my times been moving slow
I don't know where I'm going to go
Just give me time I'll know
Oh any day now
Oh any day now
I will come along
Oh any day now
Oh any day now
I will come along
I will come along

To all
Oh came
Before we say
